Anyone else keep getting notifications from the galaxy store about vouchers and ads for games etc ? It's everyday now for the past week or so and more than once a day. it's happening on my s23 ultra and s24 ultra tried clearing the cache and data but it still happens i only use the galaxy store to update apps that's it

Open galaxy store, click menu at the bottom. Tap the settings cog at the top then privacy ads. Make sure all is turned off.
I do get the pop up ad when I first open the app store but no notifications.

I dont because simply I've turned the notifications off for that app.

Cheers, Fiona. i will try that. It's the vouchers for like £3 towards in-game purchases, etc, it's annoying.

I don't usually get notifications. This is a new thing that's only started happening.

As others have said, turn off the notifications for the Play Store if it is bothering you.

And as i have says its a pain in the ***** and shouldn't be getting them. It's more of an ad than a notification. It doesn't play a sound like it would a text msg or email it just appears.
Ps. I don't even have notifications on for the galaxy store

@Robbie_R: If you haven't done so already, please try heading to Settings > Apps > Galaxy Store > Notifications > Notification categories > Toggle off 'Voucher'.

Thanks, mate. I will try that instead of turning notifications off completely and will see how it goes.
